Baby pictures!
Seems I have less blogging time now, for some strange reason. Anyways, I'll hold you over with pictures to give me time to compose The Post.

My wife is cerifiably insane.
Firstly, she insists that I set the alarm clock to 3:30am, to wake us up to feed the baby, instead of using, oh I don't know, the screaming baby to wake us up.
Secondly, she wakes up 15 minutes before the alarm is about to go off, and is worried that the baby isn't screaming. She wakes up the baby so she can feed him.

First things first.
Final Scores:
(Some of you may already have calculated these.)
Before we being, let me just say that the exact birth weight is unknown. At birth, they weighed him as 7 lbs. 7.2 oz. Later that night, the nurse weighed him at 7 lbs. 12 oz. Since newborn babies are supposed to lose weight in the first few days, it's clear there was some discrepency. After verifying that Damien was all right and he didn't have any weird psycho problems that would cause him to gain 5 ounces in a few hours, it was agreed that there was a discrepency in the scales. Early Sunday morning, a nurse weighed him again, after zeroing the scale, and he came out to 7 lbs. 7.8 oz (again, he should have been a few ounces lighter than birth weight at this point). So his actual birthweight was probably closer to 8 lbs. than to 7, but since the measured birth weight is what goes on the birth certificate, that's what we're going by here. Good enough for government work.
So, the stats:
Damien Alexander, born July 25th at 3:35pm.
7 lbs. 7 oz., 20 inches long.
Jenny: 50 pts.
Cari & Jeff: tied at 48 pts.
Devin: 38 pts.
Dave: 34 pts.
Tom: 27 pts.
Tine: 17 pts.
Katie: 1 pt.
Cleary Katie is psychic and is therefore disqualified. ;)
Your imaginary bag of marshmallows (or whatever Weight Watchers-approved treat of equal or lesser value you want) will be in the imaginary mail imaginarily shortly.
(Further bulletins as sanity warrants.)

Haha, isn't that a great Calvin & Hobbes strip?
Speaking of water, The Murloc's just broke. I have to take her to the hospital.
